Thank you for joining me today to enjoy my Christmas Cardinal card idea featuring the Toile Tidings suite from Stampin’ Up! I’ve teamed up with 3 other members of my Luv 2 Stamp Group to bring you a Blog Hop featuring Holiday Catalog ideas today! Scroll down to link to my friends Melanie, Cindee and Kurstan!
As I was stamping the Cardinal from the Toile Christmas stamp set, I decided to use my Blender Pen and Wink of Stella to blend the Real Red ink a bit, and then I wanted the face a bit darker, so I used my Dark Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends marker and colored over the red face to darken it. I also used my Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends marker to color the beak.
After coloring the Cardinal I die cut him out with the matching Christmas Cardinal dies. This Toile Christmas bundle is priced at 10% off, and is found on page 7 of the 2019 Holiday catalog or #152367 online.
Stamping Tips!
Above & Below: Tips to help you make this Christmas Cardinal handstamped Christmas card, featuring the stamped and die cut wreath from the Tidings All Around bundle #152371, vellum and Toile Tidings designer paper.
My base card is a top fold Real Red cardstock base, with a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Toile Tidings designer paper on top. I used a 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ piece of vellum over the Toile Tiding paper so that the die cut wreath and cardinal would stand out a little more. The final touch was to add a die cut branch in Garden Green from the Christmas Cardinal dies. It’s actually 2 small branches giving the appearance of a larger branch.
All of these supplies are available HERE in my online store, and check out all of the Toile Tidings suite products here.
